Vedclass · Answer

(C) catalyst is a substance that alters the rate of a chemical reaction without itself undergoing any permanent chemical change.
$1$. $A$ catalyst cannot initiate a reaction that is not thermodynamically feasible.
$2$. $A$ negative catalyst (inhibitor) increases the activation energy; it does not decrease it.
$3$. $A$ catalyst provides an alternative pathway with lower activation energy,but it does not change the initial and final energy states of the reactants and products; hence,the enthalpy of reaction $(\Delta H)$ remains unchanged.
$4$. In a reversible reaction,a catalyst increases the rate of both the forward and backward reactions to the same extent,thereby helping the system reach equilibrium faster without changing the equilibrium constant.
